Check for *.vib in a path

[dampfross]

Tried to list all upgrade files in a path

I store the actual update  vibs in a folder called Update. So I want to update the esxi with a script but Get-Childitem returns simply nothing.

$VMHost = "ESXi"
Connect-VIServer $VMHost
$esxcli = Get-ESXcli -VMHost $VMHost

$ds = Get-Datastore "STORE"
$Path = $ds.DatastoreBrowserPath + "\Update\"

$Files = Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Path $Path | sort

if ($Files.Count -gt 0) {

    Foreach ($File in $Files) {
        $esxcli.software.vib.install($File)
    }
}

How can I get the right path to update the esxi?

Thank you for any help

You could do something like this.
Remove the 'dryrun' property from the hash table, or set it to $false, when you are sure the script is working correctly.

$VMHost = "ESXi"
Connect-VIServer $VMHost
$esxcli = Get-ESXcli -VMHost $VMHost -V2

$ds = Get-Datastore "STORE"
$Path = $ds.DatastoreBrowserPath + "\Update\"

$Files = Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Path $Path | Sort-Object

if ($Files.Count -gt 0) {
    Foreach ($File in $Files) {
        $path = "$($ds.ExtensionData.Info.Url -replace 'ds://','')/$($File.DatastoreFullPath.Split(' ')[1])"
        $esxcli.software.vib.install.Invoke(@{viburl=$path;dryrun=$true})
    }
}
